Hi! I passed all day in my room studying for exams. I'm not scared or I'm starting to be scared a little bit.
At school I felt more the difference between the color of the skin.
I'm a mixture between black and white since my dad is black and my mom white.
I would like to open a parenthesis, here you can not say that someone is black, is offensive, for what I know.
So, I noticed that in college information, when you have to fill a paper you have to answer to the question: "in which category do you belong?"
-African American, black
- white
-Hispanic, Latino
-American Indian
-other
I never so something like this and I never asked me this question before.
The first time I hesitated and I asked my classmates what to answer, they said to check black.
I said that I'm not black, they said yes you are, you are black.
I'm not black and I'm not white, I'm both.
I tried to explain it to my classmates here and I don't think that they understood.
It's late now I'll finish it next time :)
